Introduction of the ‘SO’.
Students will be set up
individually so they can
make this little vocab
test.
When the ‘SO’ is
finished, the students
will have time to read
up on eachothers
stories. To see what
their classmates have
made and to answer a
few questions
afterwards.
The questions that the
students have to
answer will be on a
sheet that is handed
out by the teacher.
These sheets and their
stories will be checked
by the teacher and
eventually given back
to the students.
The questions asked
are:
What is the main
difference you spot
when comparing your
work to that of a
different group?
Having seen the work
of other groups, would
you have done things
differently?
Which story did you
like most and why?
What did you think of
this lesson as a whole?

what they are required to do for the lesson.
